"Mason Jar" lyrics

When I was a boy, there was a pretty little girl
Livin' in the house next door
Well all she wanted was some lightnin' bugs
But I wanted a little bit more
So, every evenin' when the sun went down
We'd go where there weren't no cars
She'd fill it up, and I'd watch her smile
There's a lot you can do with a mason jar

It's the little things that make a big world spin
'Round and 'round and 'round again
Don't give up or get down when life gets hard
'Cause there's a lot you can do with a mason jar

A few years went by, and I grew up
At least that's what I thought
Started gettin' into somethin' hippie friends do
It's funny, but it made me cough
When daddy got wind of what I'd been doin'
I hid it in a stump in the yard
He turned that house inside and out
But there's a lot you can do with a mason jar

It's the little things that make a big world spin
'Round and 'round and 'round again
Don't give up or get down when life gets hard
'Cause there's a lot you can do with a mason jar

Now I've been married ten years to the girl next door
And we spend most our evenings on the porch
Iced tea is all I put in this glass
That the kids use to catch fireflies in the yard
Aw, it's true
There's a lot you can do with a mason jar

It's the little things that make a big world spin
'Round and 'round and 'round again
Don't give up or get down when life gets hard
'Cause there's a lot you can do with a mason jar

With a mason jar
